Underlying tolerances of anoxia and of cellular dehydration support whole body freezing. One pro-survival mechanism employed by these frogs is epigenetic modifications via DNA hypomethylation processes facilitating transcriptional repression or activation. These processes involve proteins such as DNA Methyltransferases (DNMTs), Methyl Binding Domain proteins (MBDs), Ten-Eleven Translocases (TETs), and Thymine Deglycosylase (TDG). The present study evaluates the responses of these proteins to dehydration and anoxia stresses in wood frog liver. DNMT relative protein expression was reduced in liver, but nuclear DNMT activity did not change significantly under anoxia stress. By contrast, liver DNMTs and nuclear DNMT activity were upregulated under dehydration stress. These stress-specific differences were speculated to arise from Post-Translational Modifications (PTMs). DNMT3A and DNMT3B showed increased relative protein expression during recovery from dehydration and anoxia. Further, MBD1 was elevated during both conditions suggesting transcriptional repression. TET proteins showed varying responses to anoxia likely due to the absence of oxygen, a main substrate required by TETs. Similarly, TDG, an enzyme that corrects DNA damage, was downregulated under anoxia potentially due to lower levels of reactive oxygen species that damage DNA, but levels returned to normal during reperfusion of oxygen. Our results indicate differential stress-specific responses that indicate the need for more research in the DNA hypomethylation mechanisms employed by the wood frog during stress.</div>","PeriodicalId":55236,"journal":{"name":"Comparative Biochemistry and Physiology B-Biochemistry & Molecular Biology","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.9,"publicationDate":"2024-07-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S1096495924000721/pdfft?md5=4ce42ba0923d4e747d1dd02f1e89300f&pid=1-s2.0-S1096495924000721-main.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141538971","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This can make it difficult to perform daily tasks that require increases in aerobic metabolism. An activity important for survival is aerobic locomotion, and the rapid recovery of muscle metabolism post exercise. Past work shows that hypoxia acclimated high-altitude mice (Peromyscus maniculatus) have a greater reliance on carbohydrates to power exercise than low altitude mice. However, it is unclear how quickly after aerobic exercise these mice can recovery and replenish muscle glycogen stores. The gastrocnemius muscle of high-altitude deer mice has a more aerobic phenotype and a greater capacity to oxidize lipids than low altitude deer mice. This suggests that high altitude mice may recover more rapidly from exercise than their lowland counterparts due to a greater capacity to support glycogen replenishment using intramuscular triglycerides (IMTG). To explore this possibility, we used low- and high-altitude native deer mice born and raised in common lab conditions and acclimated to chronic hypoxia. We determined changes in oxygen consumption following 15 min of aerobic exercise in 12% O2 and sampled skeletal muscles and liver at various time points during recovery to examine changes in key metabolites, including glycogen and IMTG. We found depletion in glycogen stores during exercise only in lowlanders, which returned to resting levels following 90 min of recovery. In contrast, IMTG did not change significantly with exercise or during recovery in either population. These data suggest that exercise recovery is influenced by altitude ancestry in deer mice.</div>","PeriodicalId":55236,"journal":{"name":"Comparative Biochemistry and Physiology B-Biochemistry & Molecular Biology","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.9,"publicationDate":"2024-06-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S109649592400071X/pdfft?md5=f5422164eb7b4bf92147799cf6535c44&pid=1-s2.0-S109649592400071X-main.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141472822","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Despite the highly conserved amino acid sequences among stefins A from different vertebrates, MdCSTA presents a Methionine-2 residue at the N-terminal region and the second binding loop (pos 73–79) that differs from human stefin A (HsCSTA) and might be related to the lower inhibition constant (Ki) value presented by this inhibitor in comparison to human stefin A inhibition to cathepsin B. Therefore, to investigate the importance of these variable regions in cathepsin B inhibition, recombinant stefins A MdCSTA and HsCSTA containing mutations at the second amino acid residue and second binding loop were expressed and evaluated in kinetic assays. Enzymatic inhibition assays with cathepsin B revealed that switching the amino acid residues at position 2 and second binding loop region between bat and human CSTAs improved the HsCSTA's and reduced MdCSTA's inhibitory activity. Additionally, molecular docking analysis estimated lower energy values for the complex between MdCSTA-cathepsin B, in comparison to human CSTA-cathepsin B, while the mutants presented intermediate values, suggesting that other regions might contribute to the higher inhibitory activity against cathepsin B by MdCSTA. In conclusion, MdCSTA, the first bat's stefin A-like inhibitor to be functionally characterized, presented a higher inhibitory activity against cathepsin B in comparison to the human inhibitor, which is partially related to the glutamine-rich second binding loop and Met-2.

The IL-1β and TNF-α content negatively correlated with intestinal Actinomycetes and Mycobacterium abundance (P < 0.05). The muscle fiber diameter was smaller in both the LP and LPHF groups than the control (P < 0.05), with the LP group showing metabolites related to protein digestion and absorption, and LPHF group exhibiting metabolites related to taste transmission. The results demonstrate reducing dietary protein affects growth, causing liver lipid accumulation, reduced enteritis response, and increased muscle tightness, while increasing fat content accelerates fat accumulation and inflammation.</div>","PeriodicalId":55236,"journal":{"name":"Comparative Biochemistry and Physiology B-Biochemistry & Molecular Biology","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":2.2,"publicationDate":"2024-05-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140961009","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
